Firstly, I apologize, I don't mean to do armchair psychology. I am talking about narcissism as a character trait, not a medical disorder.
Why is Anupama so self obssessed? I know the popular opinion on this forum is that Anupama doesn't prioritise Anuj and Choti Anu enough. But today's episode is a testament to the fact that Anupama doesn't prioritise Kinjal.
If my partner cheats on me while I am heavily pregnant and I find out, my emotional state would be so bad that I would require my mom's presence by my side all the time. I am an adult but during times of emotional distress, I need my mom and I want her to prioritise me above all else.
Today, Anupama kept harping about how she is leaving behind her pati and beti to stay at Shah house. She usually comes to Shah house for nonsensical reasons but today, kinjal really needs her. Unfortunately, for Kinjal, Anupama is her pillar of support, not Rakhi. So why is Anupama recounting her sacrifices and how she is so inconvenienced by what's happening?
Coming back to the topic, I don't think Anupama is doing this due to her love for Anuj and Choti Anu. The only thing Anu wants is to feel like she is mahaan, like she is balidan ki murti, and that's why she makes the choices she does.
P.s. am I the only one who thinks MaAn romance is super cringey now? Its the chaudah saal ka nibba-nibbi wala pyaar. Can the makers please show mature, elegant romantic scenes please?
